We left London last night and arrived in Italy this morning!
We had hot chocolate and cannoli for breakfast.
Thumbs up for cannoli.
For lunch we enjoyed pizza and grape juice in plastic wine glasses (leftover from a wedding).
We tried to safely erupt soda bottle volcanos.
It turns out that orange soda barely bubbles over with the mentos. You need Diet Coke to get a good volcano eruption. Lesson learned.
We switched to designing mosaics.
Carefully designing mosaics.
We enjoyed Neapolitan Cakes and Italian Choco Wafers for our snack.
Turns out soccer is very popular in Italy, too.
A quick pose at the playground.
We love colored pencils and were coloring mandalas.
So many pencils.
She thinks hers look like Taylor Swift's background dancers.
Italian Ices on the front porch.
We went outside to run off some energy. She is organizing the six youngest boy cousins. She convinced them to run time trials that she tracked on her Apple watch.
The food in Italy looks wonderful and these grandkids of your look like they're having a great time! My gosh Miss Merry, you're a trip 😉❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteItaly sounds like so much fun! I love the picture of them all lined up on the porch.
ReplyDeleteOh, I understand now. You and the kids are just having fun pretending to visit all these countries. What fun! Let your imagination go wild!
ReplyDeleteI would have loved to be in Italy with you! These kids are very fortunate in who there grandma is!
ReplyDeleteFun stuff! You are a wonderful Grandma!
ReplyDeleteSo. Much. Fun. I want to be your grandchild for a week. Maybe longer. I'm amazed that all of the ages are so involved and having fun. You can tell that they really love each other. You are the best Mimi ever! I think grandpa is pretty good too! Where do you get all of these ideas?
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs,
